If you think that season for ethereal dresses ends with the last day of summer, we’ll prove you’re wrong! Check our styling ideas on how to wear romantic dresses this autumn.
Paired with an oversize jacket
In fashion, we love contrasts. A floating, silk dress looks great juxtaposed with an oversized bomber or a leather jacket. If you’re not a fan of infantile femininity, these are the streetwear elements that can make your look more edgy.
No heels policy
Heels are not an obvious choice for every woman, especially on a cold, windy day. Good news is that subtle dresses go well with simple flats, Oxford shoes or sneakers – they’ll add a casual touch to your outfit. On the streets, you will see girls wearing them with a pair of Converse or monochrome, white sneakers.
Layering
If you are a minimalist at heart and you love a good slip dress, just put it onto a t-shrit. Not only the basic one – it will look more interesting when styled with a printed tee. You can also transform your dress into a skirt by pairing it with a chunky knit or a sweatshirt.
Add some denim
Transform your silk dress into a tunic. Put on a pair of jeans underneath and play with proportions. Whether you pick a pair of fitted, skinny jeans or loose trousers with frayed legs – both will do. Remember to synchronise the colours – always match delicate, soft shades with lighter denim.
Go with a maxi coat
Ethereal dresses and autumn coats make beautiful outfits. Silk + wool? Yes, please! Remember about keeping the proportions. A maxi dress looks great with a long coat, yet it should reach a bit beyond the hem of the dress. It also applies to the midi length.
